Originally by: Ressiv
Originally by: Hiroshima Jita CCP probably ecstatic that people can pay them 1K$ and then blow it all up. CCP doesn't have to provide service or anything in that exchange.
This is what bugs me about you people ... let me explain:
John Doe buys 74 PLEX' off the market. 74 people just got the service they wanted for that PLEX. They got the ISK they choose to convert the PLEX to.
John Doe is either going to sell them elsewhere for a markup, or using them for his own gametime. If he is going to use it for gametime, he can apply them whenever he wants, from wherever he is, as long as he keeps them in the first layer of his hangar. (not in a container or something, tho this is speculation on my part) He also got his 'service'.
If John Doe decides (look up the meaning of that word if you are confused about this issue) to try and make more ISK of them then he paid for them. John Doe just decided to use those PLEX' as trade commodity.
Now please give me ONE good reason, why this trade commodity should have a special status, while the service the original 'creator' of the PLEX is provided.
CCP didn't code it so that you can loose your PLEX if you dont decide to make it vulnerable by undocking it.
All very well said, CCP has also made various statements that eve is a sandbox etc etc.
My only question here is / was CCP motivated to make Plex's movable BECAUSE they were hoping for situations like this.
If a plex is in a cargo hold, there is a 50/50 chance it will get destroyed. Win / Win situation for CCP imo..... ------- "The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger All of his fury and rage. He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1

Already stated that they couldn't be placed into Containers of any type (Station, Secure, Jets, etc).
So then if PLEXes are movable and the ship gets popped where do they go?
Last time I checked a ship left behind a can if any items it had dropped.
So I'll ask again... What would happen to the can if it was popped to keep people from looting the wreck?
CCP has a chance formula that rolls the dice to see if an item is dropped or not.
Since this was one large stack of plexs, either they all drop or none do. ------- "The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger All of his fury and rage. He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1

Originally by: Brannor McThife According to the latest QEN, CCP sells over 70,000 PLEX (that's coverted GTC, no mention of GTC in total) PER MONTH.
So if you convert, using simple maths of $15 each... that's over 1 million smackers, or at their average rate of ISK @ 350m:
24,500,000,000,000 ISK Or in words - 24.5 Trillion ISK exchanges hands each month in the purchase/trade of virtualised Game Time.
What if all of those got destroyed... 
-G
300k subscribers x $15 ( someones paying that either way ) is $4.5m a month.
And they cant fix sov bugs? Cant be asked to fix scanning colors?
Where in gods green earth are they spending 4.5m $$ a month?
DUST and World of Darkness I guess, it cannont be on eve. ------- "The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger All of his fury and rage. He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1

Originally by: Avius Rhinstien UTHNIKABLE, how dare people try and make a few extra bucks on those who are to stupid to realize they're being taken advantage of? Dont people have honor?
Here we go...
Obviously EVE is very profitable. CCP has quite a large staff and is now developing 2 more games using that profit ( or cash from investors who will want a profit ) to fund these 2 new projects.
I dont think its unreasonable for the community to ask CCP to fix current issues before adding 100 new features with 50 new problems into the mix. They are going to get so deep in problems they will never catch up. New customers can sit out for a cycle ( 6 months ) while CCP dedicates to fixing the game.
But hey, The data does not Polished Features selling the game more then new features... ------- "The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger All of his fury and rage. He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1

Originally by: Mella Elcus I really hope all these "pro indestructible plex guys" are trolls, because people can't really be that stupid... (oh wait, the killmail obviously proves you can).
Brb, I'm off buying a couple of hundred gift cards, burn them, and then contact some newspapers when the evil store won't refund them.
Actually since most gift cards are tracked electronically by the store, most stores do allow you a new gift card if yours is lost or destroyed.
Just sayin... ------- "The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger All of his fury and rage. He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1
